Hi Nischals, The posting in question was never removed. The reason that it could not be found is because 'try_it' posted it to 'Music/Movies/Entertainment' section. As you had noted, he wouldn't have been able to post 'nepali tube' into kurakani. If you go to kurakani to find it, it's not going to be there. If you click on 'Other Discussions/Resources' link above the kurakani discussions on the homepage then you will be able to click 'Music/Movies/Entertainment' link where you will find the posting. _____________________________________ On the same topic, as you know, I have repeatedly posted that if any site seems to be advertising in Kurakani, then necessary steps will be taken to dissuade them from advertising. A site will be considered advertising when either one or more of the following takes place - same person posts multiple posts with link to same site - different persons with similar IP posts links to same site - different users plant irrelevent postings in order to bring links to top - users who have been promoting different sites in past posts to promote the posting Currently users cannot post urls to many sites into kurakani because at some point these sites were involved in one or more of the above. Although sajha is very lenient regarding casual promoting, it is very easy to figure out when someone is trying hard to promote their sites. As I have mentioned earlier, if these advertisements are not handled properly pretty soon most of the postings in kurakani will be promotions. As there are many affiliate programs in the internet thesedays which entice users to try to get visitors to their site for some cash, these kind of promotions will be monitored so that sajha kurakani does not turn into something like - http://www.nepaltalks.com/phpBB2/viewforum.php?f=1 Right now some sites cannot be typed into kurakani, but it could be posted if some other usergroup was selected. For example in the above example 'try_it' posted to "music/entertainment' usergroup so it was able to be saved. Once it goes out of the main sajha page, then it is accessible through the Usergroup page as I described above. If users start to take advantage of this roundabout method to get their site displayed sajha main page then we might have to restrict the front page to kurakani postings only instead of everything. Regarding onlinemedia.in website, I have not banned that link because it does not seem like they are promoting their website in sajha. In fact, someone is sharing that link so that sajha users can take advantage of free Nepali Television. I hope I have answered your question. Please feel free to let me know if you have any other questions. Best wishes, San
